I'm Sold on Drew Allar

After watching BY9 all of last year and a few games this year, I’m amazed by any other QB where any other QB is so accurate, possesses such a strong arm, is so mobile and athletic, etc. I find myself falling in love with any QB just because it’s not Bryce. 

I have that as well and I'm pretty sure there is some psychological diagnosis that could be labeled on us for that just don't know what they call it....I just call it "Bryce Syndrome". It's almost like when you have gone without a woman in a while on a severe dry spell and the slutty ugly chick at the bar with chipped teeth who smells like wet dog that nobody wants to touch ends up looking like a perfect 10 and you take her home and think you just took home prime Jessica Alba.

The guy is big. He looks like a Rothlisberger in the pocket.  Many of his completions came from being under pressure and having guys in his face.

 

 

Hell, i'm so damaged in my brain by getting behind and having hope for Bryce when drafted even though concerned by his size the being hugely let down that any big QB now looks enticing to me to draft which I know isn't a good mindset

I find it more like now that I have been forced to watch Young so much it isn’t as much of a shock to my senses.  
Desensitized they call it.  

For real, it just looks normal almost now. Where the first game of 2023 I wasn’t sure what I was looking at it was so out of bounds for NFL type play. I literally couldn’t make sense of what I had seen vs Atlanta that first week.

Allar was Top 3 for me entering the season. Now, I have him about 5th. 

He's a 2nd Rounder.

Big guy, strong arm, but man he makes some wild decisions sometimes. His upside is to develop into a Josh Allen type, but he could just as easily be a Paxton Lynch.

He has 4 ints this year and is throwing 71% completetion vs top 25 with a qb rating of 125.  What wild decisions are you talking about?  He is also building off of a pretty good 2023 season which is encouraging to see.

Is this the QB you were comparing to Peyton Manning last weekend?

 

That in itself was a joke!

    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
